COUNTY SURVEYOR'S REPORT.

Gentlemen,

There arc only ten presentments for County W orks, now brought before you, which amount in all to £ 6 8 5 6s. 0d.

T he number of Presentments and amounts on the respective Baronies, are as follows :—

B arony. Ferrard, . . . Drogheda, Ardee, . . . Louth,Upper Dundalk, Lower Dundalk,

The amount applied for at Spring Assizes 1846, was £ 1 8 6 0 7 8 and at Spring Assizes, 1845, £ 2 ,1 1 8 10s. 4d. The great reduction in the amount now applied for has arisen from the Magitrates arid Cess payers, having at the respective Road Sessions, rejected

SURVEYORS REPORT.

most of the applications for County Works, for the purpose of applying the sums that ought to be presented for them, to relief Works.

There are only two works of any importance on the schedule one is for repairing the Mail Coach road from Drogheda to Ardee in the Barony of Ferrard, and the other for altering, improving and strenghtening seats and Galleries of the County Court House, both of these works are necessary.

The additions of the County Court House are, on the whole, being carried on satisfactorily. Owing to the delays which took place before the necessary loan was obtained, and a consequent delay in paying the stipulated instalments to the contractor, the works have been delayed, but I expect the new apartments can be occupied at the next Assizes. I have endeavored to preserve, in these additions, the character and style of the building to which they are attached.

Some of the extraordinary presentments granted under the A ct 9 Viet. Cap. 2, Sec. 16, have been completed and others are in progress. 1 he road through Templetown in the Barony of Lower Dundalk, and the road from Corballis to Castlebellingham in the Barony of Louth, may be taken as samples of the manner in which these works are being executed.

The extraordinary presentments in the course of being carried on under the A cts 1 Viet. Chap. 21, 9th & 10 Viet. Cap. 107, for relief purposes are progressing as favourably as could be expected when the nature of the labor employed is considered During the week ending on Wednesday, the 17th inst., 7,999 persons were engaged on these works, and a sum of £1,831 was paid for labor throughout the County.
